Actually, you have to take care of the patent leather shoe, just like any other shoe. In fact, more if you ask me because with the investment, you want to keep these shoes looking new. I actually found some patent leather cleaner out there that really helps perserve the shine. Nothing like vasoline to get rid of schuff marks though.
I made the mistake of wearing my PL shoes at the camps. Not good, wore then out inside and with most of them not even being manufactured anymore. You can't get replacements. Only wear these shoes at the big games if you can get them.
